Erin B Poetry - My Inspirations

She Has Made Me Dream

This poem was inspired by a close friend from high school. I wrote a different poem earlier, then cut some out of it, and added some from a separate poem, then added more. This friend of mine has an amazing voice, and she is beautiful, exactly how I describe. She is someone that I loved to death, but was a little jealous of at the same time. She did everything I liked to do, but so…much better, and I have never had the talent for singing. Well, I haven’t really talked to her since high school, but I am sure she is doing well with all her talents. That small tinge of jealousy has disappeared, and I am happy for any success she has had in life.

Flash forward five years, and I am inspired by someone completely different. Well, there are many people who have helped me to create my poetry , but anyone that knows me will recognize the key player in this poem. This is someone that I care for more than he knows, and on a particularly trying day with him, I ended up with this poem. As with most things with me, I have a hard time showing him how I really feel.

This behavior of yours

Is on the wrong course.

It’s beyond everything I know,

I fear it’s all a show.

Shed the anger you hold

So you can escape the cold.

What do you feel, I try to understand

But I can't give in to your demand;

I can't force you to comply,

Somehow you need to get by

Those things that make the pain.

Banish them, you don't need that again.

Keep on going, don’t forget

I want the best for you,

And your future set.
